It's me again! I'm back to post some more chapters of this story! By the way, I've just decided to start a new Sonny With a Chance story that I'll post the first chapter for soon. Let me know what you think about both fanfics! :)

The Search for True Love: Chapter 9

Rose's POV
I lay on my bed for an hour, sobbing, and missing Jack more than ever before. About thirty minutes ago, I finally heard Robert's footsteps leave. I guess he got the hint that I wasn't in the mood to talk.

Suddenly, the ship blows its horn. I start to panic. I hope nothing bad is happening. I roll over and look out of my stateroom window to see what all the commotion is about.

We seem to be approaching an island. It looks to be very small, and all I can tell from my view is that the word 'HELP' is written largely, made out of rocks and laid neatly on the sand.

Someone must be stranded on the island!

I want to go get a closer look and see what's going on, but I don't want to take any chances of running into Cal or Mother... or even Robert. So, I stay in my room, trying my best to see what's happening from the view out my window.

The 'Carpathia' sails over to the island and I see a figure of a man being escorted onto the ship by a load of crew members. A crowd stands at the top to see what's going on, and to welcome the rescued man.

From just a glimpse, I could have sworn it was Jack... but I must be crazy because I saw Jack die.

I let him go.

I have to look away from the scene because my eyes start welling with tears thinking about him. The chance of him surviving is impossible. I know it's hopeless. I will never see Jack again in this life. It just isn't possible.

Author's Note:

Do I say too much? Eh, don't answer that. Anyway… ta da! How did you like chapter 9? Let me know by writing a review and stay tuned for chapter 10.
